New FAC algorithm to enter as soon as possible.
EHM-0948 Bruno:
Wise words Sotiris :)
But also I think that our community is one of the best. Definately this kind of healthy and hard debates just bring us more further, but also, sometimes, pilots loose a little the context out here. Something that we cannot avoid :)
So, next monday the MT will debate the FAC and with the poll results will take a final decision to implement on the current next week.
Regards and safe flights!

Hi,
I personally feel that faults are done by the pilot at maximum during the take off and descent procedures only. Cruise is the time when the autopilot is on full blast and we take time off for leaks and refreshments. So long cruises should be given less preference.
But at the same time, if the flight is online, then he should be given points, so points should be I think with an if condition where in an online flight gets more benefits of the cruise, while an offline flight should not get the benefit of the cruise.

Hi,
We are going to implement this new FAC as soon as we can. Expect more news in some days.
Regards and thank you for all of your opinions! Surely it is very healthy to have a community like we have, where we can express our ideas, and have a MT team that will hear them.
I am very happy that we had ended to a good FAC, and all I can say is that we will see if this is the best FAC or not. If not, we will be here to again discuss it.
Regards!

Hi everyone, here's my opinion for what it's worth.
The new FAC algorithm (as well as other improvements to PP) don't have to be perfect as soon as they are released! I have been reading through the posts in this thread and while I've seen some great ideas come along I think we are either getting too impatient or we are losing sight of the fact that ProPilot is still a new system, unique to EuroHarmony. It is still being worked on and it may take some time before we, as an airline, have 'perfected' it - until we have found something that fits most (can't please everyone at the same time) pilots and what they want.
Maybe we should just be a little more appreciative of Bruno, Phil and Murray for the work they've already put into the system and for the upcoming labor required to make it a better experience for the rest of us? Without doubt there will be more revisions made to it; so just remember that we don't need to add everything that we want to it at this PARTICULAR improvement.
And, for an airline where participation and membership are optional, I'd say the management are doing a d**n good job at keeping pilots (the number of active pilots is at 160!!), so they're doing something right.

Thanks Ben,
I have little or no technical input though.... Our beavers behind the scenes are indeed Bruno, Murray, Maarten and now Magnus. These four guys are pretty much responsible for every thing we do now at EuroHarmony and I would like to take this opportunity to also tip my hat and say thanks for the great work they all do! :)
Cheers
